When you disconnect your battery and then reconnect it again, it disables the radio. This is an anti-theft protection for your car radio. The enable your radio the activation code is in your vehicle owner's manual. If you do not have this code you need to go to your vehicle manufacturer's service centre and get them to enter this code for you.

As far as I know, you have to go to the dealer so they can see you actually own the vehicle and radio. They will pull the radio out to get the serial number and then enter that into their computer which will spit out the radio code. If they like you, you might not be charged.

PS: Of course you can't just ask for a code on a forum like this. That would invalidate the whole purpose of having codes in the first place! The radio in question might be stolen.

If you do not have the code written in your owners manual or on some other piece of material you got with the purchase of your car then the only way to get the code is to remove the radio, check the serial number and call BMW with that serial number. Good luck!
